PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ryder Young (ranked 90 p4p, 523 weight class) and Super Salajudin Ii (ranked 11 p4p, 19 weight class). Young kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Of Monsters and Men - Destroyer. Salajudin Ii is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: На белом. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
